Most all of NW Arkansas has great roads for motorcycles. 23 & 16 mentioned above plus 21 from Berryville to Clarksville is another great run. 16 is another. Great roads!

Road Ranger, if you have a fax number, I could fax you some of the route maps that I picked up from Pig Trail Harley.
You can PM the info if you want them.

Thanks Truxpin... highway 23 would be a great ride on the return ride back north--it is another favorite I ride several times a year. Your right on the curves... a couple years ago on highway 7 we had several riders, one buddy crossed the center line on a sharp turn and had a head-on... he recovered slowly and has health problems even now. Highway 7 is a great road, but gatta be careful. Many other fantastic roads in northern Arkansas... this has to be one of the best states around for moto riding... I can put a few hundred miles in on a Saturday and see nothing but great hills and mountains... Another favorite area for my wife and me is the northwestern area around Eureka Springs... that's where we go for overnighters a few times a year just to unwind and relax...

Their are some cabins down by the Mulberry river on 23 that are on the cheap and clean. Tanner springs cabins come to mind. Turner Bend store and canoe livery on the river has a really sweet cabin right off the river they rent out. Many riders stop at this store for gas, drinks and a break. Their is also camping available at this same location.
The ride across Hwy. 16 is on my list of favs with Unfathomable scenery. It does make it more dangerous because you aren't the only one thats not going to be looking at the road.
You will have a great time without a doubt!

Awsome ride...make it a point to check out Roaring River, and Eureka Springs has tons of biker friendly bars, rooms etc...The Rowdy Beaver restaurant in Eureka Springs has good food and good people.

We ride the area a couple of times each summer and have always enjoyed the HUB(http://www.hubinfo.com/). Randal and Debbie are great folks and will treat you like family. The food at Scooter's is the best in the area. The riding is fantastic with the Grand Canyon of Ark. just down the road and lots of other roads in the area. Each little town has something unique to offer.
